Grant Supports Counseling in Connecticut



Posted: 11/1/2001

The Diocese of Connecticut received a $25,000 emergency grant to help clergy in Fairfield County provide support for local counseling staff. In the aftermath of the September 11 tragedy, there is an overwhelming demand for counseling services to refugees, immigrants, and people feeling vulnerable and confused. These funds will be used to provide support for all the distressed, especially children.
